So we caught a wolf spider near a potted plant in our backyard. I'm not sure the pictures give it justice-- because the thing seemed bigger than a full sized cat if you ask me.
And I didn't know it was called a wolf spider until we researched images to find out what kind of spider it was. But I knew the bumps on the back end of it were it's babies! Owen kept begging to hold it and I kept telling him he couldn't. Well, from what I have read, they bite, and are poisonous. I guess that is one trip to the Emergency Room we avoided. Anyway- we kept it in the jar until B.O.B. got home to see it and then the boys let it go. I'm just hoping that big spider is now doing some good and eating up some pesty ants or something.
